Abstract: The dimethyl fumaricate microcapsule was prepared by complex coacervation based on gelatin -acacia as wall material in this study. The optimum processing conditions were determined by orthogenesis tests. It was confirmed that most of dimethyl fumaricate is encapsulated by IR spectroscopy and electron microscopy. The results showed that the effect of antimould of dimethyl fumaricate microcapsule is consistent with original dimethyl fumarisate but possible allergic reaction on human body is avoided. The dimethyl fumaricate microcapsule is potent and promising preservative agent.

Key words: dimethyl fumaricate, microcapsule, preservative agent
